Lumber Tycoon 2 Value List

Quest budget reminder for Rukiryaxe: Bag of Sand $1,600 (Wood R Us), Lightbulb $2,600 (Fancy Furnishings), Can of Worms $3,200 (Bob's Shack), plus Dynamite $220 and bridge $100 as needed. A cheap trick path using two sand bags plus a lightbulb is discussed in the community — see the Rukiryaxe guide for procedure, not only prices.

Dollar costs for limiteds vary by acquisition method and era; many are not simply "buy on shelf forever." September 2026 trade talk often prices Rukiryaxe around $8k–$10k equivalent, while boxed End Times sits in a much higher prestige band than unboxed. Phantom planks (~$420) and Frost (~$106) are common fillers in large deals. Treat every offer carefully and read the trading guide before swapping. For role ranking prose, open the tier list.

Sawmill ladder (Shabby → Fair → higher tiers) should be budgeted beside axes; processing speed gates how hard plank multipliers pay. Money-stage narrative lives in make money.

• Higher plank ≠ always better per hour if the biome is contested or your axe is underpowered.
• Lava vs Gold: compare your real cycle times, not only ~$28 vs ~$36.
• Quest axes have non-shop costs (time, dynamite, logistics).
• Event woods disappear; cash them while present.
• No codes will magically credit these values — codes page.

A plank price is only realized after processing and delivery. Shabby Sawmill is the first land automation step; Fair Sawmill is the mid-game workhorse; higher mills matter once Silver or Rukiryaxe floods your driveway with trunks. If your mill queue is always backed up, axe DPS is wasting itself — redirect cash to throughput before the next biome leap.

Vehicles change effective value too. A Utility Vehicle that halves trip count can beat a nominal upgrade to a slightly richer tree that you cannot haul. Trailer unlocks amplify Lava and Frost especially. When two woods look close on this list (Gold ~$36 vs Lava ~$28 vs Cavecrawler ~$35), let vehicle comfort and server crowd break the tie.

For narrative money stages that combine these ideas, keep make money open beside this table. For truck and trailer choices that change effective value, see vehicles.

Fire Axe can annihilate Volcano clear times relative to its historic niche; Frost Axe flatters Taiga Peak; Gingerbread and Many Axe flex raw power or burst profiles. None of them appear as simple forever-shelf rows like Hardened or Silver. When someone offers a trade, convert the offer into hours of Frost farming using this list before you accept — and refuse off-platform middlemen as detailed in trading.

End Times is valued as a Phantom key more than a dollars-per-swing line item. Boxed copies command steep premiums and attract switcheroo scams. If you lack End Times entirely, Phantom’s ~$420 plank row is informational only — follow Phantom wood rather than forcing Lone Cave with the wrong tool.

Shop prices (Hardened $550, Silver $2,040, quest item totals) are stable planning numbers. Player-market numbers move. Use this cheat sheet as a conversation starter, not a binding appraisal:

• Phantom plank sell class ~$420; Frost ~$106 — useful when valuing bulk wood adds.
• Rukiryaxe often discussed near $8,000–$10,000 trade money; many buyers should just finish the den.
• End Times unboxed is already premium; boxed is a separate, much higher prestige tier.
• Negotiate slowly, inspect boxed text, never “trust trade” first on limiteds.

After major patches, spot-check one Oak sale, one mid-tier sale, and your axe shop tags. If Changelog mentions economy or item tweaks, treat this page as a compass until editors refresh numbers. Community spreadsheets may move faster; they also break more often. Prefer triangulation: this list, in-world receipt, and a trusted guide.

Never “update” your wealth with script hubs promising multiplied sell values. Those violate ToS and frequently steal sessions — see scripts. Legitimate multiplication is called milling Frost. LT2 still has no promo codes that credit these tables.
